Are you sure it's correctly installed? please show a screenshot of what it looks like after it has finished installing, if there's a green checkmark in the wizard the drivers should've been installed succesfully

If you mean the driver samsung for the pc , i am pretty sure its installed correctly. Before yesterday, i was flashed a several times my samsung. The interesting thing is, that the driver was installed properly only on this laptop with windows 7 x86
At home i have 2 machines with windows 8.1.1 x64 and the driver doesnt install.
The Driver is from this archive - http://www67.zippyshare.com/v/65155760/file.html
Here is the prtscr

PC/Zune will not recognise HD2 after WinMo 7 flash

Hi guys,
Not really a noob as I have been flashing my friend and mine's HD2 for quite a while.
I've flashed Win 7 onto mine and everything is working perfectly except the pc and Zune will not recognise it. Also says device driver install failed. I had a quick search but I'm either blind and can't see it or it's not up.
Anyone able to help?
I've installed the Chevron cert but cannot get any further because of this.
I was fighting with that exact problem yesterday, took me forever to realize my sync problem was a driver install error. In Windows, go to the device manager while your phone is plugged in. It should have you phone listed with a yellow triangle on the icon due to the error. Right click that icon and you can tell it to resolve the error, or you can go into the properties and force it to install the driver again. Give it a min to get the driver installed and tested, then you should be in business!
me as well bro...
can someone pls upload the zune software here i can't download it from the site they say no available for your country , thanks

Ah man you are a hero. I had to go one step further though. I ended up having to update the intel AMT driver on my pc as it wasn't compatible with windows 7. All seems gravy now though. Thanks for the help
Ah spoke too soon, the pc now recognises it but Zune and Chevron still won't pick it up. So close..

Did you change the registry key?
I'm having the same problem, but my computer wont recognize the phone at all. The very first time I plugged it in, it did. But now with it plugged in nothing changes in device manager. The computer doesnt even make a sound when it is plugged in and unplugged. I have installed the wp7 tools and everything. It refuses to connect. Can someone help me please?
This is really annoying now. Brought it home and the laptop picked it up fine but I don't have enough space to install the developer tools.
Have the Intel AMT driver updated here and it still fails to install the driver properly. Wrecking my head now I can't put anything on it until I get this fixed.
FINALLY got it fixed. Was all set to give up and uninstall developer tools when I spotted a program called libusb32 installed. I then twigged an error in the driver details about an unsigned usb cert. Said I'd uninstall it just to see and voila. Phone was picked up straight away.
Bit more messing about trying to get it unlocked so I could change the device name but all is working now so I can finally start loading apps.
I know it's probably only me that had that little program but worth mentioning just in case someone else has a similar issue.

At last a solution that really works, thank you. I have been stuck for 48 hours trying to get the phone synced with Zune but it wasnt happening. For all of those that are stuck this is the solution. The Device Driver is the key.
Make sure you re-set the phone and re-start it and remember to re-install the certificate before attempting to update the drivers. Use the Device manager and the update button and all should be fine.
Zune will fire up automatically onec it has updated correctly and you can finish the process............mine went smoothly after overcoming this step.
Thanks again
my solution
A simple reinstall of the phone driver and the zune sw did it for me, in that order.
HD2 Leo not working on Zune
At last as stated, uninstalling LIBUSB.sys made my HD2 windows mobile 7 work with Zune. I am using windows 7 and all is syncing with HD2 and Leo. So if you people are having problems sync with Zune un-install LIBUSB.sys from your system.

[Q] Soft Brick

I've searched all over the posts and google and have yet to find a solution. I am a MAC user and trying to restore fascinate. I am stuck at Samsung screen. I can get into Clockwork Mod Voodoo.
When i did my last backup I never enabled USB Debugging. I can not ./adb into device, nor can I use ODIN on friends PC. (No Device) Same result with Heimdal "Failed to detect Device" I would just like to get back to stock. Is there a step by step guide to recover similar to ODIN get you back to stock but for a MAC. Or since i never enabled Debug mode I should just use my warranty?
When you tried Odin, did you have the battery out and put the phone in download mode?

Yes, I did see the Yellow triangle Droid character w/ shovel
So, battery out and in download mode, Odin doesn't recognize? Hm

I feel because I never enabled debug mode originally.
Does it recognize the phone at all? Maybe the drivers need to be updated

Morning, I'm attempting to resolve the same issue. I have the "Yellow Shovel" Andy but I can't get Odin to recognize the device.
The device was fine and Odin was working last night, however I do believe I did something ridiculous last night. I tried flashing my phone with a Nexus S rom and succeeded. HOWEVER, the only buttons that are recognized are the "Home" and "Menu" soft keys.
I can boot into the 2.3 Nexus S rom but I can't get the hardware to recognize anymore.
UPDATE: I managed to get the USB to recognize. I'm not completely sure how, it just started recognizing it after fidgeting with the cable. I'm not flashing it back to stock using ODIN and the following post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=867648
UPDATE: The link above worked. I recommend using the stock USB cable that comes with the phone. Now that it's back.. I'm curious to know what I would have to change for 2.3 to work.. hm..

Come to think of it I did update the drivers on my friends PC but there was an error installing drivers. He had a Windows XP 32bit device (Did install the 32bit drivers X86) Im going to try my other buddies PC he has Vista should that make a difference?

UPDATE: My buddy brought over his PC and got it restored! looking good now. We just updated the samsung drivers. restarted the machine. And it worked. Will update w/ the file he used. Thanks for the help and feedback.

[Q] I think if bricked it good this time....

I think I have finally done it....
I can get my phone to download mode but neither ODIN or Heimdall see the phone.
Its weird that I can boot in to recovery and at that point ODIN will see the device, it appears as COM, but it will not see it in download mode.
any ideas?
If i get can in Download mode, it can be fixed.
Get the Drivers.
If your using a 2.3.3 rom get Nexus S drivers.
Install them, then try it.
if not, try on a different computer, more preferably a windows XP (idk why it just always works for me on my old XP)
I had the same issue. U need windows 7. Vista nor xp never worked for me on any oc but 7 did
to be certain, download/install the drivers

XP worked always, and still does.

"USB not recognised", Odin download mode problem

Hey. Im brand new to this forum and to Android aswell since i came from Iphone. Yea im a noob and sorry if you notice bad english
So i received my SGS2 some days ago and after researching about root/custom roms and stuff, I decided to start with rootin my SGS2. i download Odin3 1.85 and superoneclick, i also liked litening rom v1.1 and downloaded that too.
So i turn on "USB debugging" and turn off the phone to enter "download mode" and when i try to connect to Odin, nothing shows up. And Windows bar tells me that usb is not recognised. But... flash drive/transferring files and connecting to Kies works just fine. Please help me, ive been sitting over 24 hours with this issue and ive restarted/uninstalled installed pretty much everything over and over again (kies/drivers/device) not windows though. Why wont Windows/odin recognise it in download mode???
And if possible, is there a way around to install litening rom??
Thats weird man....very very unlikely to happen...
Just tell us step by step with screen shots if possible then it becomes very easy for us to find where u r doing it wrong...ok ?
Turn off USB debugging .
reboot phone and PC .

While being in download mode on the phone, the pc/odin is not recognising anything
but everything works fine and recognises when i transfer files or use Kies
/tried uploading screenshots but the forum wudnt allow it since im a noob lol)

This is driver issue.Try to find on kies an option to install the drivers again(i am not in front of my pc).Of course phone on and untick usb debugging

This is a driver problem. The Gadget Driver fails to get installed properly.
Make sure Windows Update are set to automatically find drivers for your devices.
I myself faced this problem. To rectify it I'd to try the same thing on a different machine and it worked flawlessly there.
The problem you're facing is that the Service Mode drivers are not getting installed, hence Odin is unable to recognize it.
Other possible fixes include, trying on different USB Ports, downloading Samsung PC Studio.
Thx for the replies everyone. Yea i figured its a driver issue, ill try the suggested actions incl samsung pc studio installing, and if its still not working i guess my last resort is using another pc or reinstalling windows on my own pc
In kies, i think in the tools menu, there is a install drivers option. This will fix the problem im sure. Not sure about pc studio having the same.

fyi, i reinstalled windows and updated everything and the driver connection issue is solved now. I should have done this from the beginning instead of freaking out for several midnight hours lol thx for the help everyone, hopefully the rooting and flashing process should happen painless now
if anyone has this problem too,
i had the same problem and for me closing kies helped.

Updating Yotaphone 2 YD201 ME Build

Dear all, I'm new here and just got my yotaphone 2 today, bought it locally from UAE, i beleive that the build ME refers to Middle East, got an android version of 4.4.3 YD201 model.
I thought that YD201 models are OTA updatable versions but seems not
Please can you guide me in a simple way how to update to lollipop? Noting that I've never flashed or done this before
Thank you so much..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/yo...grade-yotaphone-2yd206-running-4-4-4-t3506293
You can follow this guide fully but you don't need to flash HK first, so you just flash RU 5.0.0 firmware directly.

Thank you so much.. Totally appreciate that.. But I don't know if it really matters as the tools relates to YD206 while I have YD201.. Should I proceed ?
By the tools do you mean YotaphoneFlasher? It works on both 201 and 206 since it's from official.
Thank you again.. OK I'm all set everything is ready but the only thing that's keeping me is drivers installation... Somehow the Google drive coming with the flasher is not being installed. I tried all ways possible, I.e. right click on the INF file and install but I get error message, and also tried to install it from device manager but couldn't. Can you please help with this? Thanks again
Btw I'm using Windows 7
Would you mind to post the srceenshot so I know your problem?

my dear friend, i managed to update the driver, thanks to you, but it seems that when i power off the phone and enter the "downloading " mode on the phone screen then connect it to the computer it seems the phone is not being connected.. i used the flasher chosed option 1 "flash the cellphone" then i get the message "waiting for device" on the flasher..
i had a screenshot just to show that i have done everything i should (i guess) .. i.e. copied the firmware.. etc,,,
mindyou, i think the problem is that when i conncet the phone to usb it goes under other devices/Android which is not being recognized..
you are the best and thank you for your help again and again!
Weird. Do you've already install both drivers and restart your computer?
If yes, how about try to plug another usb port?
I got both ADB and Qualm drivers installed.. but nothing happening! I tried the 3 usb ports already..
I don't know how to solve this.. I think I need to try it on another computer .. maybe it'll work out!
Your driver not properly install. Try reboot pc, enable usb debugging at phone, plug in usb. See if there is any changes at device manager.
There is yellow triangle. So it mean.. Oh.. Oo..
If stilk not ok. Plug out usb from pc. At device manager, unsinstall both yellow triangle. Plug in back usb. So it will detect device and windows trying to install it.
If you have Windows 10 you have to disable signature driver verification, entering in the advanced boot menu of windows. After that the .inf driver will install.
I got the update at last and it's working beautifully smooth I downloaded universal driver from adbdriver.com and it worked perfectly. Thank you all guys for your help and efforts
